Testing the Nikon P-Tactical .223 AR BDC scope as an alternative to LPVOs or red dots. Much of this applies to magnified prism optics as well.

I work at academy sports in houston and have heard the same thing about nikon. I believe they make the glass for lots of other scope manu's? I could be wrong. I do run 2 6x optics on rifles right now. My savage 111 fcns '06 has a really old Burris 6×32 hunting scope. My 18" dmr i built using edc tactical billet lower matched upper and rails is wearing a early primary arms 6×32 acss… my dmr is 556… love both those. I used the p.a. in a run n gun event a couple yrs ago.
Do you guys think this would be good for coyote hunting ?
Hah! Been loving your videos. I saw your patch and it caught my eye. I thought you had white nationalist beliefs, before I took a closer look.

Get a Bitchute channel!!!
Im gonna consider my prostaff the same quality
Really glad I subbed. Thank you sir for another great one.
Hey Hop, Is that the AIM Surplus SSTAT trigger in your 12.5?
I put a P tactical 3-9×40 on my Ruger American Ranch bolt action and works great for my intentions. SO the scopes a good. Just not high end.

I might put something like that on a .22 bolt gun… nothing for serious use, but just something to plink with. (I like a 4×32 for plinking with .22’s or pellet guns, but sometimes 4x is a bit more than I need… just a thought!)
I think the purpose would be good on a .223 survival rifle like an RDB-S or lightweight folding AR-15 where fixed power = greater durability and lighter weight while having a magnified optic. But you generally wouldn't want exposed turrets for that role since you want to minimize anything going wrong in that scenario.
01:25 – Nikon what?! I heard a blip RE: that scenario some time ago, but didn't take it seriously. They should still support extant scopes, though?…right?
Hey Hop! I have that scope. A lot of what you say is true. I put it on my M&P Sport. Budget rifle/budget scope. I live on a small farm, and I wanted a simple no frills optic for predator control. BTW, the M&P Sport is a really accurate AR, and having a 3x scope brings it up a notch. Definitely not the best CQB optic, but for making a 150 yard shot across a field, it works. The adjustable turrets help if I switch loads. Main reason I bought it was price, and it is a really clear optic. Being the owner of a Sig 250 ( thanks Sig for no customer support on that discontinued model) having a discontinued scope just fits right in my my meager gun colection. I've had the scope about 4 years, no issues, holds zero.
Im currently experimenting with a variable 1.5-5 magnifier for a red dot ….cheap $80 on amazon …scopes and other gadgets seem to have some weight …
Get off my fucking log you asshole
I'd probably put it on a pistol, maybe knife optic.
Maybe pellet gun or airsoft?
I'll say having a Burris 5x prism scope (the AR556 model I believe), that thing is definitely daylight bright on the brightest setting, though there's only a 1 inch eyebox so it's not necessarily quick
Ever looked into Monstrum optics? Apparently they're pretty good for the money (but still on the budget side).
watch out for those log ants breh
Hop is knocking out great content for the Poors.
We here at the bottom rung of Life appreciate you, Hop.
Hop, have you tried the primary arms ACSS prisms? I think you'd like them.
